Holloman, who runs the 40-yard dash in 4.5 seconds, is looking forward to learning more about the Gamecocks.

"I've got a teammate down there (Jason Barnes), and he likes it down there," he said. "I know they have Steve Spurrier coaching them now, and I know they're in the SEC. The SEC is top notch football with a lot of speed and great defenses, and that fits my style. I want to see them in person at some point."

Holloman, who bench presses 270 pounds, grew up with a clear childhood favorite.
